US President Donald Trump postponed, in the last few minutes, an election rally that was due, yesterday, due to a storm, and this came at a time when he is trying to push his campaign against his opponent in the upcoming presidential elections, Joe Biden, who is being given polls progress.
Simultaneously, the US President repeated his criticism of China over the "Covid-19" pandemic, stressing that the relations between Washington and Beijing "were severely damaged", adding that Beijing "could have stopped the pandemic, but it did not."
On Friday, Trump headed to Florida for a fundraising campaign and other events, ignoring health advice about the danger of large gatherings, especially in this state, which is one of the largest epidemics in the United States.
And with opinion polls showing increased support for his Democratic rival in the November presidential election battle, Joe Biden, Trump has stepped up his schedule of public events, in order to mobilize his base.
The campaign of the American President set a date Saturday for a gathering in the state of New Hampshire, after a standstill that lasted for weeks, due to the high number of cases of "corona" emerging in several states.
But the White House announced a delay of "one or two weeks" due to the approaching tropical storm, "Fay."
This delay was a blow to Trump's efforts to emphasize the central point in the campaign's path, indicating that life and business can begin to return to normal, after four months of crisis.
His last gathering, held in June in Tulsa (Oklahoma), was controversial, with most attendees breaking Trump's guidelines for fighting the Corona virus, by refusing to wear masks or maintaining physical distance, knowing that they were in a closed place.
The number of new Corona infections in Tulsa jumped in the weeks following the June 20 rally, and local health officials said it was "likely" that major events were a contributing factor.
